BANDH IN BANGALORE ON 9th Aug’09
Members belonging to certain Kannada Organisations have given a Bangalore Bandh (General strike) call from Sunday 6AM to 6PM, 9th Aug’09 to protest against unveiling of the statue of the famous Tamil poet saint Thiruvalluvar. No political party is supporting the call and the High court of Karnataka has directed the state government to take tough measure against the agitators. The police have made adequate security arrangements.
The inaugural function to unveil the statue is happening in front of the RBANMS College on the Ulsoor lake area. Though we do not foresee any major disturbance/violence in the city due to the strike, we advise employees to avoid areas in and around the place of inauguration which may see minor skirmishes.
The areas that needs to be avoided are
· Ulsoor tank bund and surrounding areas
· Commercial street and surrounding areas
